Happy Homes,

Much has been written and saidi about how to
make home happy. The moralist and tho
preacher have backneye6 this theme until it
would seem nothing more remained to be said.
But the philosophers have gone far out of their
way to account for the prevalence OF ill assorted
couples and unhappy homes, and have over
looked the chief cause. Most Of the un happiness
of married life can be traced directly to those
functional arrangements to which women are
subject In nine cases out of ten the irritable,
dissatisfied and unhappy wife Is sufferer from

"Old Spot" the celebrated war horse of the
late Gen. Fitzpatrick, died last week of old age
Spot was captured by Fitzpatrick in South
Carolina while under Sherman in his march to
the sea, and Was used by the General through
out the rest of the war. The exact age aud
pedigree Of the horse is not known, but compe-
tent judges believed him to be of Arabian
origin and about 80 years old at the time of his
death he was the oldest horse known 10 have
been used by any General in the late war. In
his will the General ordered that old "Spot u
should be kept on the homestead and cared for
until his death. Gen. Kilpatrick's executors
refused many tempting offers for the old horse
made by parties desiring him for exhibition
purposes. He was buried with military hOnOrs
in the presence Of a large number of villagers

marked efficiency. lie narrowly escaped cap
ture, being at one time almost surrounded by
the enemy. He won the highest commenda-
ton of Gen. Buford for his conspicuous gall
lantry. In those days words of praise from
Gen. Buford were more highly priced by Off
GERS under his command than brevet COM
mission.
He continued in command of his regiment,
being engaged with it at Upperyille and Aide.
lie was appointed Brigadier-G General of VOlun-
teers, to date from June %, 1868, and assigned

A Oneer Lawsuit.

A $4,000 libel suit has been brought against
the New Haven Comm Union by George II.
Ford, proprietor Of one Of the fashionable Jew
elry stores Of that city. The suit is a peculiar
one, and has created considerable comment.
Next June New Haven will formally dedicate
a soldiers monument" and u number Of citi-
zens have Tor some time been engaged In maxi
ing arrangements 10 have the ceremonies i'm
posing and attractive. IL was decided that il
would be impossible 30 make the celebration
a complete success unless President Cleveland
and his vile were present, so il was determined
10 invite them. Jeweler Ford, who was on the
Invitation Committee, ~ the story goes, made
up his mind 10 get up an elaborate invitation
for the Chief Magistrate, aud he did so with
the aid of local artist. Ii was so gorgeous
that MIR. Ford placed IL on exhibition in one of
his show windows While thus exposed TO
view IL was discovered that the wording u the
invitation was extremely ungrammatical, and
the JRiOH called attention 10 il through its col
umns Tails did not please Jeweler Ford, and
he has brought suit asking $4,000 damages.
The best grammarians in the city decided the
Union was right, and the gentlemen in charge
Of the arrangements for the day Of dedication
had another invitation prepared, which read
more correctly and which was recently tender
ed 90 President Cleveland. Mr. Ford claims
that the Union has held him up for ridicule aud
contempt in an editorial. but just how much he
has been injured cannot be determined until
the case s tried.
